25 Speaker: Larry Brown, RN, BSN STEMI Coordinator St. Luke s Episcopal Hospital Houston, TX 2012, American Heart Association 25

26 St. Luke s Episcopal Hospital Houston, TX Hospital awarded accreditation as a Mission: Lifeline Heart Attack Receiving Center by the AHA and SCPC in Provides 6 steps hospitals can follow to become an accredited Heart Attack Referring/Receiving Center , American Heart Association 26

27 6 Steps to Achieve Heart Attack Referring/Receiving Center Accreditation 1. Minimum Bronze level recognition from Action Registry GWTG (AR-G) 85% composite scores no score < 75% 2012, American Heart Association 27

28 6 Steps to Achieve Heart Attack Referring/Receiving Center Accreditation 2. Monitor Data Closely Real time data evaluation: critical to improving and maintaining a quality STEMI program. Recognized STEMI Coordinator» < hr case review with timeline to all clinicians» Develop data collection system to monitor individual specific parameters» Identify trends in outliers for individual segment parameters (i.e. door to ecg, ecg to page, team member response times, etc.)» Monitoring just the D2b or E2b times won t identify the source of outliers and identify OFI s» Retrospective monitor from registry data WON T get the job done! 2012, American Heart Association 28

29 6 Steps to Achieve Heart Attack Referring/Receiving Center Accreditation 3. Focus on E2B Times The most challenging requirements we faced was reaching a GWTG award was consistently achieving a E2B time < 90 min. Key: Communication Establish clear protocols. (jointly with EMS) Who determines an ECG meets STEMI guidelines? (paramedic, RN, ED physician) Advance activation - When and who initiates the STEMI alert? Clear line of responsibility for all clinicians Feedback: Concurrent case evaluation to all clinicians. 2012, American Heart Association 29

30 6 Steps to Achieve Heart Attack Referring/Receiving Center Accreditation 4. Apply for Accreditation The accreditation program significantly raises the bar above achieving M:L recognition award status: Physician credentialing (# cases, CME s, privileging criteria, etc.) Patient volume requirements Hospital No diversion policy for STEMI Monthly interdisciplinary committee participation Quality improvement process On-site evaluation by a SCPC surveyor to determine whether the hospital is up to par. 2012, American Heart Association 30

31 6 Steps to Achieve Heart Attack Referring/Receiving Center Accreditation 5. Build a Relationship with EMS (partnership not a dictatorship!) Recognizes and acknowledge EMS contribution to the rapid treatment of STEMI patients. Advance activation of STEMI team is essential to meet the E2b time. Encourage EMS to stay in the cath lab and observe PCI procedure. Offer education: be creative - day internship in cath lab, etc. Rely on EMS ECG s don t duplicate on arrival in ED sends the wrong message to EMS! EMS records in the In-patient chart; they are essential to document a compete time-line. Provide a space in ED for paramedics stock with snacks! 2012, American Heart Association 31

32 6 Steps to Achieve Heart Attack Referring/Receiving Center Accreditation 6. Establish Ongoing Education Programs Mock STEMI drills with EMS, ED, and cath lab Film them, home movie cam works great, participants review, etc. In-house staff education program for IP STEMI response Sponsor ECG training to EMS They will welcome you with open arms Education to transfer hospitals on process development, protocols, clinical education, and case feedback Takes time and effort by the STEMI Coordinator but it is worth it. Case reviews: Can and should be more then a statistics! 2012, American Heart Association 32

33 #11 ( ) SLEH # HFD # Unit#: S033/D STEMI CASE REVIEW EMS direct admit (EMS transmitted ECG 10:46: ST elevation V2-V6 Total occlusion of the proximal LAD 83 year old male patient with a significant cardiac Hx including stents placement. The patient had been scheduled to have shoulder surgery in 2 days and had been ordered by his physician to stop Plavix and asa. On ems arrival the patient was c/o nausea and mild chest pain similar to previously experienced upper GI symptoms. An ECG showed ST elevation in anterior lateral leads and was transmitted to triage. Shortly after initial assessment the patient experienced a drop in b/p to 70 systolic and oxygen saturation dropped and patient became diaphoretic. A repeat ECG reconfirmed STEMI. An IV was started and asa given. On arrival in ED the patient was assessed by cardiology and directly transported to the cath lab. Angiograms showed a total occlusion of the LAD and a 90% mid RCA lesion. A previously implanted stent was identified in the proximal LAD and was identified as the culprit lesion. The lesion was quickly ballooned and stented. The procedure was accomplished without complications. Cardiac enzymes drawn on admission were all negative. Eight hours post admit all enzymes were significantly elevated. 24 hours post procedure the patient is doing well; no c/o chest pain. The patient is scheduled to return to the cath lab this afternoon or tomorrow morning for intervention on the RCA. 911 call: 10:19 EMS at Patient: 10:38 ECG preformed: 10:46 ECG transmission received: 10:50 Patient arrival at triage: 11:07 Admit to CCL 11:21 1 st intervention: 11: to pt: 19 min pt to ECG: 7 min ECG to transmission rec ed: 4 min pt to arrival at SLEH: 28 min SLEH arrival to CCL admit: 14 min pt to balloon (E2b): 70 min SLEH D2b: 42 min Post stent proximal LAD
